country shaming

To make a disparaging or unflattering statement about an entire country or its people, either due to malice or insensitivity. What's important is the context in which the statement is said and the person's motive for saying it rather than whether it is true or not. A journalist could state that country X is the poorest in the region or has a high level of crime out of an earnest desire to inform the audience, but he/she may also have the desire to tarnish the image of the said country due to their own biases. Other more clear examples of country shaming include referring to countries as "sh*tholes", saying things like "your country doesn't matter" or "nobody ever goes there", and bringing up unflattering statistics about a country to mock someone.
Telling someone their country is poor and insignificant is a form of country shaming.

Shit Country

Faggot leaders + no consequences = shit country.
It's a universal truth that when you put in faggot leaders, and take away consequences for bad behavior, you get a shit country. It's as true today as it was 2,000+ years ago, and it's never going to change.

Other countries

Would have lost too.
Hym "You should be less concerned with other countries and more concerned with the overt, public, violations of rights that are actively happening to American citizens right now. I just had a guy I've never seen just walked in and called me by my name and then he looked at my chest, realized I didn't have a name tag, realized that he messed up, and bumbled his way out of the store. You need to read the words I am writing and understand that I am not going to let them take my life away from me. And if YOU as a politician are going to look the other way, I'm going to create consequences that equate to my life being taken. You need to stop slow walking because you're going to explain something to someone. Pick which explanation you would rather give and then do what I want you to do because we both already know which explanation you would rather give."
